Van Riper and Nies Attorneys, P.A.

Tim represented me on a DBA injury case and I would highly recommend his representation to anyone needing counsel and representation on their injury case. I inquired into a few other attorneys representation and decided to go with Tim as he was the most immediately involved from the start and was right there with me throughout the whole process. Tim was always straightforward with me about my case, even when it wasn't exactly what I wanted to hear. However, he respected my position anyway and fought for my requests; even though his initial advising was spot-on and aligned with the end results. His experience and knowledge in DBA/injury law is first-class. I am very grateful for the representation that Tim and his team provided me with and would highly recommend anyone needing representation to reach out to Tim and inquire about their specific case.

I never thought I would be involved in a lawsuit. Thank God I met Tim Nies. He's an excellent attorney, very personable, and very knowledgeable in regards to insurance law. Through Tim's tireless efforts on my behalf, I was able to provide for my family during those difficult times. He secured a settlement on my behalf that opens new doors for us, and for that I am constantly grateful. Excellent job, great guy. Tim Nies is highly recommended in my book.

About two months ago I hired Tim for an issue I that was having with my apartment complex. Tim worked quickly and efficiently to rectify the issue and get my money returned to me. He has wonderful communicaton skills and always kept me up to date with any new updates. So impressed! Would hire again for any future needs without hesitation.

I was injured in Iraq performing diplomatic security. I was left unable to work and had a surgery forced on me by a DBA Insurance provider. I was not represented by an attorney at the time. The surgery left me completely disabled at a very young age with a family to support. The insurance provider wanted me to have another surgery or lose my DBA benefits. I would have lost everything if this happened due to me being physically unable to work. I contacted, and spoke with several attorneys that all told me the same story that I'm just at the mercy of the insurance provider and my outlook for mine and my families future was grim. I eventually spoke with Tim and he had a very positive outlook and assured me that everything would be taken care of. Time was of the essence due to the surgery date in less than a week, Tim negotiated for a second opinion and saved my benefits. Due to the second opinion I discovered that if I had I went through the "required" surgery I stood a very good possibility that I would have died due to Vascular issues. Tim fought my case for over 3 years and won a very generous settlement that was unheard of in other similar cases. Tim is very passionate about the fair treatment of his clients. I would absolutely recommend Tim to anyone looking for legal council.

Hired him and the first problem I had was when I left the office I thought his rate was $250 per hour and asked him to provide a monthly accounting and never received one ever, and I was not happy with his lack of response to my communication and not doing what he said so I terminated him and hired another attorney and after giving him a $6400 he refused to refund the balance after doing 2 hearings and 1 deposition. He is a nice guy but when you take $6400 for a couple hours work that we agreed on $250 per hour that makes him a crook in my book
